COMPOST MAKING

INTRODUCTION:

Compost makes soil better for plants and helps them grow more. Composting is when we
turn food scraps and leaves into plant food. Composting happens naturally, but we can
speed it up by creating the right conditions. Good composting gives us soil that's full of
nutrients.

MATERIALS REQUIRED

1. fruit scraps,
2. vegetable scraps,
3. coffee grounds,
4. grass clippings,
5. leaves
6. shredded paper for composting.

PROCEDURE

1. Start by mixing dry leaves, shredded paper, straw, and untreated wood with fruit and
vegetable scraps, coffee grounds, grass clippings, and plant bits.

2. As you build your compost pile, add grass clippings and other green waste. Once it's
set up, burry fruit and vegetable scraps under at least 10 inches of compost.

3. Cover the top of your compost pile with a lid to keep moisture in. Remember to
check it regularly and add water if it gets too dry.

4. When the compost at the bottom looks dark and crumbly, it's ready to use. That
means it's broken down enough to be good for plants.

RESULT

As per the above procedure the compost is made
